COMBINED TRAINING

Combined training consists of a dressage test and a one round against the clock showjumping. Once the dressage has been completed the competitor does the showjumping, any faults in the showjumping section are deducted from the dressage score to dictate the winner. In the event of an equal placing the showjumping time decides the winner. The same partnership must ride both elements of the competition.
